This data collection contains 262 comparable variables from
AMERICANS VIEW THEIR MENTAL HEALTH, 1957 (ICPSR 3503) and AMERICANS
VIEW THEIR MENTAL HEALTH, 1976 (ICPSR 7948). Investigators were
interested in determining whether the 1957 descriptive findings
remained stable or had changed by 1976, and whether relationships
established between sex, age, education, marital status, well-being,
role experience, problems, and methods of dealing with stress were
replicated or altered in the 1976 results. Variables focus on various
areas in which problems might arise, including marriage, parenthood,
employment, and general social relationships. Information about
leisure time, past and present physical and mental health, and motives
for affiliation, achievement, and power were also sought.

Funded in 1975 by the National Institute of Mental Health,
this data collection proposed to assess the quality of American life
and to influence national policy aimed at enhancing mental health
resources. This collection contains 262 variables that were also
included in AMERICANS VIEW THEIR MENTAL HEALTH, 1957 (ICPSR 3503). The
survey queried American adults on various areas in which problems
might arise, including marriage, parenthood, employment, and general
social relationships. Information about leisure time, past and present
physical and mental health, and motives for affiliation, achievement,
and power were also sought. In addition, extensive information was
collected concerning help-seeking, the readiness of people to use
professional help for mental health problems, the particular helpers
they used, referral mechanisms, and evaluation of help received.

Dynamics of Economic and Demographic Behavior
[electronic resource] "Clean Processes" From the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID)

Lee A. Lillard, director of the Retirement Research Center
at the University of Michigan, senior research scientist at its
Institute for Social Research, and professor of economics, developed a
unique method for analyzing the rich compendium of data collected by
the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) since its inception in 1968.
Lee died in December 2000, and his colleagues at PSID decided to
provide the fruits of his work to the research community so others
might benefit from an exploration of his techniques and methodologies
for analyzing data. Lee created what he called "clean processes" to
investigate a number of dynamic behaviors that are measured
longitudinally in PSID, such as employment, marriage-divorce, and
fertility. He and his programmers and research assistants put these
processes into a consistent framework, and made decisions about how to
resolve inconsistencies, missing items, etc. Data from the files can
be entered, as appropriate, in dynamic econometric models of related
and mutually causal processes: for instance, the relationships among
marriage, fertility, and female labor supply. Thus, researchers can
study various combinations of these behaviors without having to go
through complex file creation for each project.

The Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) is an
ongoing data collection effort begun in 1968 in an attempt to fill
the need for a better understanding of the determinants of family
income and its changes. Core data are collected annually, with each
new wave of family data constituting a separate data file (Parts
2-27, 201-205). Data on individuals are contained in Part 1,
Cross-Year Individual File, 1968-1993 (Waves 1-26) [Public Release
II], and an early release of individual-level data through 1999 is
included in Part 201, Cross-Year Individual File, 1968-1999 (Waves
1-31) [Public Release I]. The PSID has continued to trace individuals
from the original national sample of approximately 4,800 households,
whether those individuals are living in the same dwelling or with the
same people. The investigators hoped to discover whether most
short-term changes in economic status are due to forces outside the
family or if they can be traced to something in the individual's own
background or in the pattern of his or her thinking and behavior.
The data can shed light on what causes family income to rise above or
fall below the poverty line. In line with the theoretical model, the
questions asked fall generally under the headings of economic status,
economic behavior, demographics, and attitudes. Specifically, they
deal with topics such as employment, income sources and amounts,
housing, car ownership, food expenditures, transportation,
do-it-yourself home maintenance and car repairs, education,
disability, time use, family background, family composition changes,
and residential location. Content of a more sociological or
psychological nature is also included in some waves of the
study. Information gathered in the survey applies to the
circumstances of the family unit as a whole (e.g., type of housing)
or to particular persons in the family unit (e.g., age,
earnings). While some information is collected about all individuals
in the family unit, the greatest level of detail is ascertained for
the primary adults heading the family unit. Core topics in the PSID
include income sources and amounts, poverty status, public assistance
in the form of food or housing, other financial matters (e.g., taxes,
inter-household transfers), family structure and demographic measures
(e.g., marital events, birth and adoptions, children forming
households), labor market participation (e.g., employment status,
vacation/sick time, occupation, industry, work experience), housing
(e.g., own/rent, house value/rent payment, size), geographic mobility
(e.g., when and why moved, where head of household grew up, all
states head of household lived in), and socioeconomic background
(e.g., education, ethnicity, religion, military service, parents'
education, occupation, poverty status). Beginning in 1985,
comprehensive retrospective fertility and marriage histories of
individuals in the households were assembled.
